I have other interests besides sports, but I am big fan of basketball and baseball in addition to the Bengals. I don't watch "sports television" exclusively but I do watch it on a regular basis. It is a major part of my entertainment.
So what the hell are they going to be talking about for the next month?
And please don't turn this into political debate because you don't like ESPN. Just substitute "FOXsports" for "ESPN" in the title of this thread.
Might be able to find rerun of puppy bowl or turtle racing on animal planet? Other than that, going to be tough to find live sports. Maybe golf?
They might end up showing old games they are licensed to broadcast just to maintain some viewership. Kind like what the NFL Network already does.

Yep, I'd say before long they'll be forced to break out the old stuff.
I am predicting live video game competitions.
You might laugh, but those are becoming very popular, and I would rather watch a Madden game between two experts than some old rerun that I know how it ends.
Get ready for a reboot of ESPN Classic..
I will make this prediction. I'm betting that more yard work, household chores, and home improvement projects happen in the coming month than would typically be expected for this time of year.

That already happens via E-sports. It is actually rather large in the gaming community. Some games already have million dollar prize pools. As for NFL Madden E-sports being broadcast I guess it would depend on who the NFL and EA gave the rights to.

Live competitive weed pulling events! Who can scrape peeling paint the fastest? Boy, just think of all the undiscovered exciting events we have to look forward too this year! I know..the pro driveway sealing circuit! Who wouldn't want to tune in to watch guys seal their driveways on national TV!
I know..the pro car washing championships..heck, maybe pro dish washing with the probowl of pots and pans scrubbing! The possibilities are endless!
We might even get competitive wife beating events when it's all said and done..
Live feeds of grocery stores and warehouse clubs so the viewer can watch the boxing matches (winners get the TP).
That, and old reruns of Stump the Scwab...

I suppose we could roll around the neighborhood, in our giant bubble and look at these perfectly manicured lawns....

Centipede grass is quite popular down here, as it is cheap and grows well in the sandy soils of the Eastern part of the state. Bermuda is more popular on the hard clay areas, but requires a lot of regular watering, down here.
